Director Radu Jude

BUCHAREST: Producer Ada Solomon, following up her Golden Bear win for Călin Netzer’s Child’s Pose, is developing an adaptation of the writings of Romanian-Jewish author Max Blecher, including Scarred Hearts. Radu Jude is directing, signifying his third outing with Solomon after The Happiest Girl In the World and Everybody In Our Family.

Published in 1937, Scarred Hearts (Inimi cicatrizate) chronicles the life of a Romanian student suffering from spinal tuberculosis who falls in love with another patient in a sanatorium near the French coast.

In his original script, Jude aims to continue the theme of his previous short film, Shadow of a Cloud (O umbră de nor), investigating the relationship between people and their bodies. The director has not yet settled on a DoP.

Solomon is producing through HiFilm Production with an estimated budget of 1.2 m EUR, she told FNE. Producers from France and Germany are interested and shooting expected to for 2015 with the premiere loosely set for 2016.
